🎶Listen to Marry Your Daughter by Brian Mc Knight🎵

*CHICAGO'S POV*

"What's going on...? Dad ?! " I call out but there's no response.

I take a deep breath and feel cold shiver run down my spine. My heart stutters and I forget how to breath. I close my eyes and take another deep breath. The air around me feels heavy and charged.

"Dad ?"

I call out again but there's no response.

Just when I'm about to scream at the top of my lungs I see a yellow night light flicker at a distance.

I let out a sigh of relief then another night light flickers. Within a blink of an eye the whole room is full of flickering night lights all in different colors.

I get captivated by the sight and forget that a second ago I was scared to death.

As I'm looking around I see one light beside me go on. I turn to see my dad standing beside. He wraps a hand on my shoulder and I feel my body relax. I then turn the other way only to see Jean seated on a royal blue piano.

She smiles at me and I smile back.

Just when I'm about to say something she starts playing a light note. Within seconds the room gets filled with the beautiful sound.

I start walking towards her but another light behind me goes on.

I hesitantly turn only to see a smiling Wes standing at the end of the room.

He has changed from his charcoal grey suit to a black tuxedo. One of his hand is at his back while the other is holding a white rose.

Just then Brian Mc Night's Marry Your Daughter starts playing.

What's he up to ?

I look at my dad for clues but he's staring at Wes. I shift my gaze back to the man in question and he's walking
towards me while lip syncing the song.

"Sir, I'm a bit nervous 'bout being here today.
Still not real sure what I'm going to say."

When he reaches to where I'm standing he hands me the rose. I take it and smile at him.

"So bear with me please if
I take up too much of your time."

He removes his other hand from his back and in it is a tiny black velvet box. My eyes go wide and I quickly close my mouth with both hands.

"But you see in this box is a ring for your oldest.
She's my everything, and all that I know is...
It would be such a relief if
I knew that we were on the same side.
Cause very soon I'm hoping that I...

I watch him go down on one knee.

"Could marry your daughter and make her my wife
I want her to be the only girl
That I love for the rest of my life,
And give her the best of me 'til the day that I die "

He opens the box and I feel warm streaks of tears fall down my cheeks.

"I'm gonna marry your princess and make her my queen,
She'll the most beautiful bride that I've ever seen ,
I can't wait to smile when she walks down the aisle on the arm of her father
On the day I marry your daughter "

The song comes to a stop and I crouch to the floor so that I'm on the same level as he is. I hug him and he hugs me back. I cry on his shoulder and he let's me.

When I break the hug he's smiling at me.

"Chicago Ansley Brook... will yo-"

"YES !" I cut him off and he chuckles.

"I didn't even ask." He teases.

"I don't care cause the answer is yes... Dean Weston Hughes... I will marry you."

He takes my hands in his hand slides the diamond ring in my finger.

Its too heavy but I don't care...

I examine it and smile.

He then kisses me and I kiss him back. He holds my face in his hands while I wrap my arms round him. He then breaks the kiss and helps me get up. That's when I realize the lights are all on and everyone's present.

They cheer at us and I cant help but kiss my fiánce.

Jean runs to me and folds me in a tight hug. Alex follows suit and does the same. Logan literally jumps on me but apologizes when he remembers I'm pregnant.

"Yes you can marry my daughter."

I turn to see my dad smiling at Wes and I can't help but smile too.

Chicago Hughes.

Has a nice ring on it.

***

We arrive at the mansion at 12:00 am. I'm beyond exhausted and so is Wes.

He carries me to our room and takes me to the bathroom. He sets the bathtub and leaves me to soak in it while he heats my dinner.

Twenty minutes later he walks in with with a plate of chowder. I hesitantly eat it because I'm not a fun but I have to for the sake of the twins.

Once I'm done Wes takes the empty plate to the kitchen.

"Do you need anything else ?" He asks while tucking me to bed. I whisper a 'no' and he gets under the covers.

Seconds later he's already asleep.

I look at the time on my phone.

12:25 am

***

"Wes !"

"Wes !"

"Wes !"

I slap him lightly on the face and that's when he wakes up.

Finally

"Mmmhh ?" He answers sleepily.

"I'm hungry."

He grunts then sits up while rubbing the sleep off his eyes. I see him checking the alarm clock on the night stand then turns to face me angrily.

"Seriously Chicago ! Its 12:45 am. We've been asleep for twenty min-"

My sobs stop him from talking any further. He pulls me into a hug and places his lips on my forehead.

"I'm sorry love. What do you want to eat ? "

"Ice cream... and pickles." I say, my voice barely a whisper.

"Really love ...? That's sounds and I know will taste disgustimg." He chuckles and I punch his arm.

He winces in 'pain'.

"That's what your kids want... not me."

"Nice played." He says while getting up. A ghost of his previous smile visible on his lips.

***

Half an hour later I'm full. Wes asks me a dozen times if I need anything else and I give him the same answer.

No

He tucks me to bed again then lays next to me. I turn to face him and he's deep in slumber.

"Wes !"

"Wes !"

"WES !" I shout and he abruptly sits up.

I see him compose himself before turning to face.

"Yes Chicago ?"

"I think my water just broke !"
